So there you are. If you’re the weirdo wanting unlimited exercise then enjoy. But not until Wednesday. Obviously.

Summer 48. Mags is holding the 1st prize sign. I’m on her left. Hours with the curling tongs were needed to produce those curls as you can imagine. I had never gone anywhere without my mother. I was terrified but soon got used to it.

Hi - I did not know anyone of you before September 1956!
I was the only pupil from St Anthony's School in Mill Hill to come to QE that year - Gay Sumpner (?) was I think a
year above us and her older sister too was at QE but I can't remember her name now had been there too. The school was a convent run by Franciscan nuns with a senior school St Mary's Abbey on the Ridgeway in Mill Hill.
St Anthony's is now a Jewish School I am told and St Mary's transformed into apartments.
I started there aged 5 until I sat the 11+. By then we had moved
from Apex Corner to Totteridge which was, as Ann says in her excellent introduction. in Hertfordshire and I sat the Hertfordshire
11+ exam in St Andrews School in Totteridge.
